Connect University: Digital Decade Policy Programme 2030 – The way forward

The objective of this session is to present the 2030 Digital Decade Policy Programme to the broad public, touching upon its objectives, main components, challenges and opportunities for European citizens and actors of the European digital ecosystem.

A brief introduction of the Programme will be given, highlighting that it is the first ever digital strategy commonly agreed by EU institutions with a multilevel governance – a significant breakthrough after the Digital Agenda and the Digital Single Market. We will then proceed with an interactive panel between different actors to showcase its importance for various actors and at various levels (institutional, business, regional, etc.).
